The advantages and performance of TPE soft rubber toys are constantly highlighted, and the industry has broad development space

TPE is thermoplastic elastomer, also known as artificial rubber or synthetic rubber. It refers to a new polymer material between rubber and resin. TPE material has both rubber and plastic properties. It not only has the characteristics of traditional cross-linked vulcanized rubber such as high elasticity, high strength, green environmental protection, safety and non-toxicity, as well as good aging resistance, oil resistance, fatigue resistance and high temperature resistance, but also has the characteristics of ordinary plastics. With its wide range of processing methods and low processing difficulty, it is widely used in home appliances, daily necessities, toys, medical care, automobiles, rail transit, wires and cables and other fields.

Among them, soft rubber toys made of TPE as raw materials are called TPE soft rubber toys, which have all the advantages and properties of TPE materials. At the same time, compared with the common PVC soft rubber toys currently on the market, TPE soft rubber toys also have the advantages of smooth and supple surface, high safety, do not contain any potentially toxic ingredients, strong anti-cracking performance, good color matching performance, etc., and have greater application prospects. broad.

In recent years, TPE soft rubber toys have gained the favor and trust of consumers due to their superior performance, and their penetration rate in the domestic toy market has continued to increase. Common types of TPE soft rubber toys currently on the market include toy tires, soft vent toys, hand toys, simulated animal toys, simulated plant toys, simulated fruit toys, etc.

As the key raw material of TPE soft rubber toys, TPE’s market supply has an important impact on the development of the TPE soft rubber toy industry. Currently, my country’s thermoplastic elastomer TPE output is showing continued growth. In 2021, domestic thermoplastic elastomer output will be approximately 2.568 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 9.1%. The sufficient upstream supply of thermoplastic elastomer raw materials has laid a good foundation for the development of my country’s TPE soft rubber toy industry. Currently, with the advantages and characteristics of domestic TPE soft rubber toys constantly highlighted and the supply of raw materials sufficient, the development trend of the industry is improving.

According to the “Research Report on Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects of China’s TPE Soft Rubber Toy Industry from 2022 to 2026” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that domestic TPE soft rubber toy companies mainly include Shangsu Technology, Pengda Plastic, Juye Plastic Technology, Dongguan Plastic, etc. The technical difficulty of producing TPE soft rubber toys is low, and the industry entry threshold is low. Therefore, most of the domestic enterprises in this field are small and medium-sized enterprises. The industry concentration is low and there is huge room for future growth.

Industry analysts said that in recent years, with the continuous improvement of national living standards and the strengthening of health awareness, green, environmentally friendly, safe and safe Poisonous TPE soft rubber toys have become the subcategory with the most development potential in the domestic soft rubber toy market. Its market penetration rate continues to increase, and the industry development prospects are good. However, the current concentration of the domestic TPE soft rubber toy industry is still relatively low. In the future, local companies will need to continue to make breakthroughs in terms of technology and branding, and accelerate the improvement of the company’s core competitiveness, thereby promoting the increasing number of domestic leading companies in this field and providing high quality to the industry. Lay a good foundation for development.
